Unnamed 5.9 TR

This short slab is actually really good for what it is. There are sizeable crimps the entire way up the middle of the slab leading to a thin, 5 foot finger crack to the base of

Thindependence

. In the Gillett guidebook, this slab has 5.9 and a dashed line drawn in under

Thindependence

.

Stem up about 25 feet to stand on a block to begin the slab climbing. Then, climb the middle of the slab on the leaning block directly under

Thindependence

and left of the direct start to

Pear Buttress

. As of now, the only way to climb this is to either solo it or TR it.

Solo or toprope it. There is no protection for this slab, though a few bolts would make it a fun alternative start for the routes in the

Pear Buttress

area.
